Ning Fengzhi felt a violent jolt in his heart.

The brush in his hand clattered onto the desk, ink splattering across the white paper.

This Tang Yu's marching speed was shockingly fast, and he hadn't even sent word, bringing his troops directly to their doorstep!

He stood up in a hurry and strode toward the exit.

"Summon the sect disciples immediately and follow me to inspect the situation!"

A moment later, on the open ground before the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect gates.

Ning Fengzhi arrived with the sect's high-ranking members.

In the distance, on the horizon, a dark, oppressive cloud was rolling toward them.

It was a sea of soldiers, marching with uniform, synchronized steps.

Every footfall sounded like a muffled thunderclap.

The heavy thudding against the earth caused the entire mountain to tremble slightly.

Even the trees by the roadside swayed, shedding leaves in a flurry.

Ning Rongrong, Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and the others emerged from the inner courtyard one after another.

As soon as they stood still, a terrifying military might washed over them, forcing everyone to hold their breath.

The palpable, murderous intent felt like a biting wind, stinging their cheeks.

Those black-armored soldiers were like Asura risen from the depths of hell, devoid of any human emotion.

The sound of armor clashing together was soul-shaking.

Only an endless killing intent swirled above the army formation.

At the very front of that terrifying force.

A young man rode a tall steed, advancing at a measured pace.

His black robes snapped in the wind, and a chilling aura of slaughter permeated his surroundings.

It was the Heaven Dou Empire's new favorite, Prince Wuyang, Tang Yu.

Ning Fengzhi's expression was graver than ever as he stared at the youth on horseback.

Even from a distance, he could feel the overwhelming, domineering presence radiating from the other man.

"That is... Tang Yu..."

Watching that upright figure, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration.

What a heroic youth!

Setting aside that undead army, this composure—remaining unmoved even if Mount Tai were to collapse before him—was enough to look down upon all heroes.

Beside him, Chen Xin and Gu Rong had also cast aside their earlier disdain.

The two Titled Douluo wore extremely solemn expressions.

Their senses far exceeded those of ordinary people, so they naturally detected the terrifying fluctuations of soul power hidden within Tang Yu.

"An eighteen-year-old Titled Douluo..."

Chen Xin gripped his Seven Kill Sword, a flash of shock crossing his eyes.

"Such talent is unheard of; he is truly the most brilliant genius in history!"

Gu Rong swallowed hard, his muscles tensed.

Facing such an peerless genius who played by no rules, no one dared to take him lightly.

As for Ning Rongrong, who was hiding behind the others.

She was in a completely different state.

The little girl peeked out, her gaze landing squarely on Tang Yu's handsome, flawless face.

With sword-like brows and starry eyes, his sharp features exuded a wild yet profound charm.

Sitting tall on his warhorse, he looked like a god descended to earth.

Ning Rongrong was completely dazed.

Her heart began to pound uncontrollably.

Her mind went blank, leaving only one thought.

He was a hundred times more handsome than any man she had ever seen!

Whatever arrogance, lechery, or rumors of abducting women—in the face of this peerless visage, none of it seemed to matter anymore.

Even her previous anger vanished into thin air at this moment.

The army came to a synchronized halt a hundred paces from the sect gate.

BOOM!

The sound of them standing at attention in unison was deafening.

The dark, dense formation stood like an insurmountable wall of steel.

Spears rose like a forest, their imposing aura reaching the absolute peak of majesty.

Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, struggling to calm the turbulent waves within his heart.

He forced his signature gentle smile onto his face and took two steps forward to greet them.

Cupping his hands, his voice rang out loud and clear.

"I have long admired the great name of Prince Wuyang."

"Seeing you today, Your Excellency is truly imposing and extraordinary."

"I wonder, what business brings the Marquis of Wuyang to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect with such a massive army?"

These polite pleasantries gave Tang Yu plenty of face.

But Tang Yu, mounted on his horse, paid him no mind at all.

He couldn't even be bothered to offer a single word of greeting in return.

Sitting high in the saddle, his gaze was bone-chillingly cold as he slowly swept across the entire scene.

Wherever his eyes landed, the members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect felt a piercing chill shoot straight from the soles of their feet to the tops of their heads.

After a brief silence, Tang Yu parted his thin lips.

He uttered a sentence that caused the entire crowd to erupt.

"From this day forward, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect shall submit to me."

The voice was not loud, yet it carried a tyrannical intent capable of cleaving the heavens and the earth.

It fell clearly into the ears of everyone present.

The entire scene instantly plunged into a deathly silence.

It was as if the very breath of every person had been choked off by that single, short sentence.

Immediately following, a massive uproar broke out!

"What!"

"What did he just say?"

"He actually wants to conquer our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

The sect disciples whispered to one another, their faces filled with astonishment and fury.

A sect with a thousand-year heritage and an exalted status as the second-greatest in the world was actually being confronted at its own doorstep and ordered to submit!

The smile on Ning Fengzhi's face froze instantly, then turned livid.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo both felt their soul power surge, their hearts filled with shock.

Ning Rongrong also snapped out of her infatuation, staring blankly at the youth on horseback.

Did she hear that right?

He actually thought he could swallow the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect with just these tens of thousands of troops?

Ning Fengzhi could finally no longer suppress the rage in his heart.

As the master of a sect, if he allowed others to ride roughshod over him, how could he ever lead his subordinates again?

"Prince Wuyang!"

Ning Fengzhi stepped forward, his voice turning cold and hard.

"I respect you as a hero of the Empire, but this statement is far too dismissive of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

"Do you truly believe there is no one in this world who can deal with you?"

Facing Ning Fengzhi's interrogation, Tang Yu's expression remained indifferent.

He did not even lift his eyelids.

He merely raised the horse whip in his hand, pointing it toward the magnificent sect plaque ahead.

"If you do not submit."

"I shall raze the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to the ground!"

The words fell, devoid of any superfluous nonsense.

Boom!

Following Tang Yu's command.

The tens of thousands of black-armored soldiers behind him took a single, perfectly synchronized step forward.

The violent force slammed into the ground.

The rumbling sound that shook the earth echoed once more.

That monstrous killing intent converged into a torrent, surging straight toward the gates of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

The fierce, baleful aura stung people's eyes so painfully that they could hardly bear to look directly at it.

The crowd was once again stunned by this terrifying formation.

They had originally assumed the other party was merely here to assert dominance or negotiate.

It was only at this moment that Ning Fengzhi suddenly realized Tang Yu had been telling the truth!

The other party was not joking at all; they truly intended to resort to force!

The pressure of the entire scene surged toward him alone like a tidal wave.

Feeling that terrifying pressure looming so close, even Ning Fengzhi, who had seen his fair share of storms, could not help but tremble with fear.

The clothes on his back were already soaked through with cold sweat.

What a terrifying army!

He watched those soldiers, devoid of human emotion and resembling nothing more than killing machines, his heart pounding wildly.

It was this very army that had forcibly trampled the territory of the Star Luo Empire into the dust...
